Ive been wanting to share this grow with the community for a good amount of time now. I have officially maxed my license out with 6 patients including myself allowing for a total for 36plants for me to grow. Also just signed 2 up with my wife. Once the paperwork goes through we will be good for 48. goal is 72. Anyways right now we are both still waiting for paperwork to process with patients and can only grow 30...I will be keeping it way under the limit due to space and legal concerns so im only going to be running 16 plants in flower but this is perpetually. Goal is to harvest 1 tent every 7-10 days. Eventually we will expand to 26kw in flower 26plants still under legal limit.
Veg room is 25x25. Im growing In secret jardin 5x10 tents. 1kw MH per 5x10tent. 8 45gal smartpots per tent. After 8-10week veg I begin taking 2 plants every 7 days from veg room to flower room which is 40x20 in there i have 7 5x10 tents 2kw per tent 2 45gal smartpots per tent. Im running mostly magnum hoods with magnetic ballasts that are wired into 50amp timer boxes running on 240v. I have 4 50amp timer boxes in the flower room so when i transplant from veg tent to flower tent i can continue to run in 18/6 until my trellis screens are filled enough for me to flip to 12/12.
Soil mix is promix bx, perlite, espoma garden tone, flower tone, assorted guanos and about 20-30lbs of EWC per pot. For feeding i bubble teas with my 50gal drum and tea brewer. i mix in EWC, guano and fish emulision bubble for 12hours and feed. I also constucted 2x6 30''x30'' boxes around the smartpot with pond lining in them so i can flood the root zone allowing for the plants to have max water/nutes. each 45 gal is getting hit with a 5gal bucket of tea and then i top them off with water. Id say im watering about 20-25gals per plant every 5-7days.
Ventilation - I have 1 6inch blower connected to a T pulling the heat from 2 tents creating negative pressure. this keeps hoods cool to touch and allows nice circulation of air from all the vents... this way i need no fans in tents. I have 2 6 inch blowers cooling 4 tents. and 1 8in cooling the other 3. I also have a 15,000btu ac that i will be putting in the wall as the temps get warmer out but right now we are fine.
I chose to do a perpetual grow because of legal limits. Authority is pretty hardcore around here and you cant really fuck up with plant counts and overage unless you wana lose your license and go back underground... so i chose to go perpetual 1 tent per week. I never will harvest over my limits when only pulling down 2 plants every 10 days.
